Radio Rounds ™, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit company, is a weekly medical radio talk show that is freely accessible to anyone and everyone.
Created by medical student Avash Kalra and founded by medical students at the Wright State University Boonshoft School of Medicine in Dayton Ohio, Radio Rounds is the first and only radio show in the United States that is hosted and produced entirely by medical students.
Radio Rounds was founded specifically to promote the qualities of empathy and humanism in medicine, to showcase the art behind the science of medicine, to provide insight into the medical profession, and to connect all levels of the medical profession across the nation — from medical students to practicing physicians. Radio Rounds explores the qualities of humanism in medicine through different perspectives — those of world-renowned physicians, authors, students, patients and health care leaders. In short, Radio Rounds tells today’s stories in medicine, through the lens of tomorrow’s doctors.
Radio Rounds airs weekly and is available via live streaming audio here on www.radiorounds.org and also via iTunes podcasts. Featured guests have included Pulitzer Prize winner Tracy Kidder, CNN medical correspondent Martin Makary, and best-selling authors such as Rachel Naomi Remen (Kitchen Table Wisdom) and Samuel Shem (The House of God). See the entire guest list on our complete episode guide.
While broadcasting over 70 episodes since April 2009, Radio Rounds has expanded into a more comprehensive media organization that also includes live-audience shows, documentary features, and original literary work.
